Abstract excerpt
BACKGROUND & OBJECTIVES: Insulin regulated aminopeptidase (IRAP) has been related to certain pathologies such as breast cancer, Alzheimer΄s disease and septic shock. IRAP is encoded by the leucyl/cystinyl aminopeptidase (LNPEP) gene. The genetic variation in the LNPEP gene has been analyzed in relation with the mortality and vasopressin clearance in septic shock. The LNPEP rs4869317 SNP (single nucleotide...
